NDIS Travel and Transport Assistance Gold Coast

Get the support you need for your travel and transport with our dedicated service. Our support workers assist you in navigating your journeys, whether it’s for essential appointments or social outings. We help build your confidence in using various transport options and ensure you can access your community safely and comfortably.

What is NDIS Travel and Transport Assistance?

NDIS Travel and Transport Assistance supports participants who have difficulty getting around on their own due to their disability. It’s designed to make sure you can access the places that matter—like medical appointments, education, work, social outings, and community activities—safely, reliably, and without barriers.

At SS Disability Care, we provide one-on-one transport assistance across the Gold Coast, tailored to your routine, preferences, and support needs. That might mean driving you to your appointment, helping you get on the right bus, or staying with you while you attend an event. Our support is practical, respectful, and built to help you feel confident every step of the way.

Transport funding may come under your Core Supports or Transport budget, depending on your plan. We help you understand how to use it, arrange your bookings, and deliver transport in a way that suits your daily life—whether it’s regular, occasional, or short-notice.

Our NDIS Transport Services on the Gold Coast

Transport to medical and health appointments

We make sure you get to your GP, specialist, or therapy session on time and without stress. If needed, our support worker will stay with you to help with check-in, wait nearby during your appointment, and ensure you get home safely. Whether it’s a regular visit or a one-off hospital trip, we’ve got it covered.

Daily travel for work, study, or training

If you're heading to school, university, a job program, or your workplace, we’ll get you there reliably. Our support is built around your daily schedule, with the same familiar worker wherever possible. You’ll never need to worry about missing a class or turning up late for work.

Community participation and social outings

From going to a local BBQ to attending a group event or church service, we provide support that keeps you connected. Our workers help you plan the trip, travel with you, and stay present if assistance is needed while you're out. You set the destination—we handle the rest.

Assistance using public transport safely

Want to start using buses or trains but unsure how? We travel with you, show you how to plan routes, read timetables, and buy tickets. Support is step-by-step and continues until you feel confident. Over time, many participants choose to travel more independently—and we’re here for that journey too.

Support with mobility aids and accessibility during travel

We assist with walkers, wheelchairs, and other mobility equipment before, during, and after transport. Every vehicle and trip is planned with your safety in mind. Our support workers are trained in safe handling and always take extra care.

Help with essential errands and personal tasks

Need to get to the shops, pharmacy, post office, or bank? We provide transport and practical support for everyday tasks. We can stay with you during the trip, carry bags, and help with whatever needs doing—so the whole outing feels more manageable.

Yes, you can. If you attend the same place regularly—like weekly therapy, classes, or work—we can schedule ongoing transport so it’s locked in. You don’t need to call each time. We’ll arrange everything ahead of time and keep it running unless something changes.

We can provide both. If you need help getting dressed before heading out, or support during the outing itself, we can combine services into one smooth support session. Let us know what’s needed, and we’ll match you with the right worker.

Yes, if it supports your independence or social goals. NDIS allows travel to community activities that help you stay connected or build life skills. So if you’re going out for leisure, recreation, or simply to enjoy time with others, that’s part of your plan too.

We use a range of safe, clean, and well-maintained vehicles that suit different needs. If you use a wheelchair or mobility device, we’ll assign a vehicle that’s fully accessible and ensure the driver or support worker is trained in correct handling. All equipment is secured properly before travel, and we plan ahead to make sure the pickup and drop-off locations are safe and easy to access.

If you need support getting dressed, packing items, or preparing for your outing, we can include that in your booking. Just let us know what time you’d like support to start. We often combine personal care and transport into one seamless service so everything runs smoothly from the moment you wake up to the time you return.

We provide personal care, domestic assistance, community participation, daily living support, and meal preparation services. Our team helps with showering, cleaning, shopping, appointments, and social outings—whatever makes your day easier. All services are tailored to your needs and routines. You can book support for mornings, evenings, weekends, or just when needed. We also assist with mobility, communication, and confidence-building where required. Everything we do is about helping you stay independent and connected.

Getting started is easy. Call us or send an enquiry through our website and we’ll talk with you about the support you need. If you have an NDIS plan, we’ll help check your funding and explain what services are available. You decide when and how often you’d like support. Once everything’s confirmed, we’ll book your first service and stay in touch to make sure it all runs smoothly.
